"Tis Of Limerick We Sing"
Introduction:
Later on this year we hope to stage a concert which will
reflect "Tis of Limerick we song"on the history of Limerick.
We hope to have this concert in the concert hall. Our wish is to have a narrative
which will be supplemented by slides
and photos and of course the songs which are featured on the CD. The songs reflect
different stages in the development
of Limerick from the birth of the town, the famine years all it's sporting glory
and of course it's beauty as a county.
